C'mon feel the Noize..


That's right! We are rocking and rolling like superstars in Hopkins, MN. Nobody rocks like James and Kathy!

Saturday, Kathy is back in town and we are living on the edge by studying for our Data Analysis/ Decision Making classes. For those who are about to rock, we salute you.

Now, more pictures of the remodel.



This week had the marriage of countertop to the cabinet and which included the faucet to the sink as the guest of honor.

We are still trying to decide what to do about the cabinet knobs. We are not really sure what ones should have them and which will not. Boy, thank goodness for easy worries like that.

The countertops are the color of "Summer Sandstone" not to be confused Suzanne Summers.

We have picked up our closet organization stuff and should have that in this weekend or maybe next weekend. The project is expected to wrap up this week coming up. Final trim work, handrails, tile trim work on the floor are expected to be installed.


I believe we are in charge of the mirrors for the bathroom, which we have one already ready to go. Maybe next weekend we move upstairs. Or we become disappointed.

Light show begins

The project progress has returned just as we returned from the loss of Kathy's dad. It was nice to see all the families that came in support.




Thank you for all the kindness during this time.


The first big developments came on Monday when the electricians came installed the lights.

You can see the globes that will be hovering over the bed. Not actually hovering, as much as they are pendant lights. Through the miracles of modern technology we now have seperate lights with switches over each of our beds.

The rest of lights are including the fan over the future location of the bed.
One of most nifty things is it is fancy and with luck it might pass the inspectors glare of being a half inch too low. Hopefully, they know it will be over the bed and not in a pathway. Kathy is planning on making brownies to appease those decision makers.







This is the sitting room stuff with lights! Oh boy!



Next development is today the cabinets are installed. We have been fairly impressed with the look of the cabinets. You can also see the shower door was installed. Hooray! No more spray the water on the floor.

Well, that is about it for this update. I wish you all well.
